1958 Edsel Citation 2-door Hardtop
Up for bids is a 1958 Edsel Citation 2-door Hardtop. This was the first year for the Edsel and the Citation was their top of the line model. The car is gold with a white top. The paint is original and has never been re-painted. The car has been stored inside for the past 25+ years.
The car has some rare options for 1958: power windows and power seats. Three of the four window still work, but the back right side only works when it feels like it.
The lights, blinkers, and horn work; even the radio still plays. The trunk is solid, as is the back seat area. The trunk floor is solid. I have the bottom of the back seat; it has a seat cover on it. I just took it out so you can see it is solid underneath. The front is mostly solid; someone put a small patch on years ago. The lower rockers are rusted from the front fender back a foot or two on both sides.
The stainless trim is all there and in decent shape. Good glass except for 1 crack in driver's side glass. Headliner is in great shape with no rips or tears. The car runs and drives, but doesn't stop. It needs a master cylinder. It also will need a new fuel pump; runs with gas can under hood. The engine is not the original engine. A jack comes with car, but no spare tire.
Car comes with clear Wisconsin title. This car needs someone to bring it back to it's original splendor.
I have a low reserve on car and it is being sold in as-is condition.
$500 Paypal deposit is required with the balance in a cashier's check. Car can leave when funds clear bank.
Good luck bidding!
